Ch. 67 - Magical Trouble

"I can't believe they actually left me. After giving them all of my hugs!" Olaf was annoyed at first before crying as he said the last sentence.

Olaf may be a snowman made from magic but him talking and responding is proof that he is alive and not an organic monster.

"Or maybe they're already looking at me! Hmm hmm! They must be worried about me by now. I should probably stay here so it won't be that hard to find me." Olaf stayed positive despite his situation before sitting on the ground and waited.

"Oh look! A butterfly!" However, it didn't even take a few seconds before a butterfly caught his attention. Olaf then stood up and started chasing it, forgetting about the fact that he was supposed to stay in his position and wait for Elsa and Anna to arrive.

*Thud!*

After 5 minutes of constantly chasing after the butterfly, Olaf suddenly bumped into someone.

"Hey! Watch where you're going!" After Olaf fell on his butt, he quickly reprimanded the person he bumped into and when he tried to look at who it was, Olaf couldn't see anything except for a dark figure due to the sunlight behind the figure, making him unable to see the appearance of the figure.

"Elsa? Anna? Mike? Wait, I don't know any Mike, silly me, ahahaha!" Olaf started guessing the person's name before laughing at his own joke.

"What's this? A talking snowman? Hmm, you're worthy as an ingredient." The figure's old voice croaked as Olaf understood what the figure said and started panicking.

"Ingredient? You're cooking me?! Wait, no!" After a moment of realization, it was already too late as the figure's scrawny hands were already picking him up from the ground.

"B-but I'll melt! I'm a snowman, remember?" Olaf tried to reason his way out and at the same time, he could finally see the face of the figure in front of him.

Olaf saw that it was an old man, grinning at him. The old man has a few scars on his face and is missing a few teeth. What caught Olaf's attention was the large scar on the old man's neck, as if someone just tried to slice his neck and survived to tell the tale.

"Ewgh, no offense but you'll be part of my 'No-Hugs List' along with Jin, because he left me here alone." Olaf pouted and said making the old man laugh.

"You do know how to make a joke. Tell me, Olaf. Who is this Jin? Is he unique? Or just a normal human?" As the old man asked, his tone got excited when he mentioned the word 'Unique' before turning into disgust when he mentioned the word 'Human'.

"One of my rules is to never snitch on my friends! You'll never get anything out of my mouth!" Olaf pointed his stick hand towards the old man and after he finished his sentence, the old man suddenly plucked his stick arm out of his body before snapping it in half after gripping on it very tight.

*Gasp!*

"Ahhh! The pain! It hurts! My hand!!!!" Olaf panicked and screamed in 'pain' before returning to his usual self as if nothing just happened.

"Wait, I actually felt nothing. That's pretty cool, hey mister would you mind finding me another arm? I kinda feel uncomfortable without my left arm." Olaf laughed in joy before kindly asking the old man, the same man that broke his stick arm.

"You're one annoying little fella. Don't worry, soon you'll become one of my ingredients and perhaps, I could finally attain true immortality!" The old man manically laughed before grabbing his old looking cane that was leaning on a nearby tree before limping away from the area.

"Help! Help me! Someone just kidnapped me! He's an old man without any teeth! He's probably a vampire that got his teeth pulled out." Olaf started panicking and yelling for help before calming down and whispering the last sentence to himself in curiosity.

***

A few miles away from Olaf, Tigress and Elsa were riding on their horse when Tigress's ears suddenly perked up and picked up Olaf's voice.

"There! Hiyaahh!" Tigress pointed towards the east before picking up the speed.

After hearing Tigress and feeling the sudden increase of speed, Elsa quickly held tight on Tigress's torso and couldn't help but feel the hardness of her abs.

'I didn't know women could also have this. I thought only men do.' Elsa wondered to herself. Maybe she should start working out?

'No, one thing I hate the most is being drenched in sweat. Perhaps that's the reason why I have ice powers.' Elsa said and chuckled to herself as the horse suddenly stopped in its tracks.

"What the? What happened?" Tigress wandered in surprise as she noticed that the horse was not moving an inch, as if time had stopped on the horse.

"Hold it right there, ladies." Suddenly, the old man carrying Olaf in his arms came out of the tree, looking at them menacingly.

"Olaf!" Olaf was the first thing Elsa saw and quickly called out to him.

"Elsa? Thank God, I'm finally saved! Help me Elsa, this old man took my arm! I can't give hugs anymore!" Olaf shouted back and saved, waving his remaining stick arm.

"Elsa, stay here. I have a bad premonition on this old man." Tigress squinted her eyes at the old man and warned Elsa.

"I can help!" Elsa said however, Tigress didn't listen to her and slowly approached the old man. In fact, the reason was not because she cared for Elsa's safety, but because Tigress felt like she finally found a worthy opponent that could make her go all out without feeling that she was being spared.

*Sniff!*

"Oh, you sneaky little bastard. I didn't think that there's still more of your species in this world, you beast!" The old man suddenly sniffed and grinned madly towards Tigress, he threw Olaf away as if he didn't care about him anymore. Luckily, Elsa arrived in time to catch all of his body parts.

"Nice catch! Oh, watch out on my butt!" Olaf complimented Elsa's catch before panicking and yelling as he witnessed his butt landing towards them. Thankfully, Elsa reacted in time and jumped away.

"Fwooo! I thought I would have to walk without my butt. Wait, how is that even possible?" Olaf used his right stick arm to wipe off the imaginary sweat on his forehead before asking himself in confusion.

"What do you mean by that?" Back to the battle, Tigress asked as she got ready to transform any moment now and pounced on the skinny looking old man in front of her.

"I could still remember how I ate their flesh after cooking them. They couldn't stand a chance against me." The old man then started turning black and threw the cane away.

His wrinkles started disappearing and was replaced by a smooth grey skin. Horns were slowly emerging from his foreheads. Tails grew from behind, slashing the ground with great force.

"All these years, I thought I would have to live a mundane life for the rest of my life, thankfully I met you. I would have fun torturing you and this time, I won't make a mistake and breed more of your kind!" The previous old man has now turned into a 10 feet tall demon with a black and grey skin. Red tattoos were drawn across his chest, making a menacing appearance.

'He's a demon? Is he like Jin?' Tigress wondered and she was suddenly snapped out of her thoughts when the demon suddenly appeared in front of her with his fists cocked back.

"Stay down, beast!" The demon madly cackled as he launched a devastating blow towards Tigress.

The demon was simply too fast for Tigress to react so she could only use her forearms to block the punch, hopefully it would be enough.

*Boom!*

Tigress's body was blown away as she grimaced in pain. She felt her arms weaken and turn numb.

As her body slammed and landed on the ground, a cloud of dust formed around the area.

The demon just cracked his fist and looked around. From the looks of it, he wanted to play with Tigress instead of going all out.

"Come out, little kitty!" The demon called out, something that he shouldn't have said as Tigress turned red from madness and quickly finished her transformation to her beastly form, using the clouds of dust as a cover.

*Fwoosh!*

Tigress suddenly emerged from the cloud of dust, making the demon turn around and face her rushing kick.

"There you are!" The demon raised his palm to block Tigress's kick.

Remembering that she shouldn't underestimate the enemy in front of her, Tigress's paws turned in bright gold, infusing her chi on her paws to increase its strength and force.

The demon frowned when he noticed this. This is the first time he saw someone using an unknown energy that he hasn't heard of from a mere beast. As far as he knows, beasts only know how to physically fight not use any other fighting methods.

Unfortunately for him, it was too late for him to dodge so he could only tank the chi infused paw on his chest.

*Boom!*

The demon's feet remained on the ground and he merely skidded backwards from the sheer force of her paws.

"I admit, I wasn't expecting that. But this just makes everything more fun! Fine, let's use our powers, shall we?" The demon grinned madly and said before raising his hand, inducing a purple liquid from his surroundings that slowly took the form of a trident that floats on top of his palm.

A few miles away from them, Jin was flying in the air and searching for Olaf when he suddenly sensed something weird from afar. Jin's senses were leading him exactly to where he was sensing the feeling.

"What was that?" Without hesitation, Jin decided to trust his feelings and quickly rushed towards the demon's location.
